    what i said is that it was his peak when he fought pacquiao in my own view.
    after that was all downhill for him.
    and i also mentioned, that maybe pac has damaged him also. he showed a lot of chin against pac.and even turned into a southpaw at 12.
    Don't get defensive, I just asked you a question. So after the third Manny fight, he was out of his prime?

        Funny how this thread has shifted. The TS wasn't talking about if Manny fans respected EM. He (as well as myself) wants to know why is it that certain Manny fans don't give MORALES CREDIT for beating Manny the 1st fight? Why are there all the excuses as to why Manny lost rather than giving Morales his just due.

            What are you talking about? I always make the argument in favor of Morales when people bring up the first fight. Morales is one of the greatest fighters of this era, and ATG and had two extremely close losses to Barrera, IMO that could have went either way. He was on a great run and wasn't shot, something to this day I don't get why people say.

            I even argue that he wasn't shot in the second fight when Pac beat him and that he only lost to Raheem because 130 was his absolute peak and going above the he gave up too many advantages to a bigger, faster man.

            Morales win over Pac is his best win IMO, along with Junior Jones, Barrera 1 (he won that IMO), and Daniel Zaragoza.

            No shame in Losing to Morales, because he is a beast, and he wasn't shot in his first or second loss. Full credit to him for beating Manny in that classic first fight.

              he was outboxed by raheem in a division the he has fought for the first time, a 4th division at that ... how many Mexican great have success in four division?

              You have seen PAC-EM 2, please tell me if you did not see Erik winning the fight in the first five rounds and thought that the fight will end up just like the first fight...

                Again...Morales was past his prime when he beat Pacquiao the first time.

                Again. When a dehydrated fighter can no longer make weight and is forced to move up, then is soundly drubbed the whole "it was the weight" thing flies out the window. Why? Because he would be even worse at the weight he could no longer make. Going down to 130 ruined Morales. Ruined whatever he had left which, obviously, wasn't much.

                    When a fighter dehydrates himself badly, they are usually strong early because of the IV rehydration, then almost always badly fade. Like clockwork.

                      So it was the division and not him diminishing as a fighter?
